Just returned form 10 days in Vietnam. Stayed the first few nights here in a club room. The club rooms are not the same standard as you get at the Hyatt, Westin, Langham or Hilton but it is definitely worth the upgrade. Agree with the comments made in a number of reviews re: distance from the city centre and access... More

I found this to be a very nice stay, although the location of the hotel is in District 5 quite a way from the centre and the immediate neighbourhood is not so good. There is a supermarket close by but I wouldn't recommend any of the local restaurants. However, it's easy enough to get a cheap taxi ride to the... More

This very good hotel is a little out of town, but an excellent tuk tuk will take you into the centre, say to the Ben Thanh market, in about 15 minutes, for about 65,000 Dong. Too far to walk - and beware of pickpockets and bag snatchers.

We stayed at this hotel for two nights and absolutely loved it. Yes it is in district 5 but in Ho Chi Min that is a good thing. A taxi into town costs only a few dollars. The rooms were large and clean and the service was 5 star. The airport pickup was excellent. The breakfast buffet was lovely with... More
